Hello?
  • Demonaz

    The definite favorite album of mine for 2011 is Demonaz March Of The Norse. Kind of stumbled upon it by looking for Immortal stuff. This is blackened heavy metal with juicy guitar riffs and pungent drumming, clear and strongly produced. Not one poor song...

  • big_red's Top 20 of 2011

    There are two ways to look at 2011 from a musical perspective: it was really long, and it was compressed into what seems like a very short period of time. That sounds paradoxical, but I think it makes sense upon further examination. The year itself was...
  • 2011: Some Words

    2011 was a fuckin' year. I don't know how to describe it. It just fucking happened. The year kicked off with some tough shit that almost literally killed me. The months after were me just trying to recover, earn back trust, and make sense of things...

  • F*@& !!! Another year end list. Who cares...

    Yep. I'm gonna do it again. But does anyone ever really care about this list I'm ready to drop. Prolly not. Does it match up with the Metal Reviewers top 25? Not really, and thats why I'm posting. All right, lets cut to it. 1. The Atlas Moth...

  • Metal to save the World

    Things go well, our new Band TERRATEYA rocks realy hard, the rehearsals work out better than we've ever expected, the CD is out now and the digital release is done. But what to do now? It's Synphonic Metal, every song is special and tells a story...

  • Mini-Update

    What am I looking forward to? Mastodon, Lamb of God, Meshuggah, Opeth, Machine Head, Disma, YOB, and Wolves in the Throne Room. It seems a little weird that I wrote that almost five months ago. Musically, at least, it's been an eventful five months...

  • Best of 2011

    Ok so here it is. Not really presented in any sort of order, but I'll try to make a few comments on each one. Mastodon - The Hunter: Never reviewed this one, but definitely my favorite album of the year. Upon first listen I thought "is this it...

  • This Has Been A Crappy Year

    Not in my personal or professional life, as those have been pretty good. I got married over the summer and my job is okay. I'm talking about music. I was going through my iTunes a little bit ago, trying to prepare a list of my favorite albums for...

  • Not So Fast and Some Evile

    I was fully expecting/planning to update this more regularly when I started posting again a couple of weeks ago. Unfortunately, "real life" always seems to get in the way. Needless to say, if anyone is even reading this, I'll try to post...

  • I'm back?

    Even though I visit the site on a daily basis, it's been over two years since I've logged in and looked at this blog. It took me about 15 tries to remember my username/password combination. Anyway, since I've been in a writing mood and feeling...

  • Requiem

    We can always try to explain things and come to terms with trajedy. We can find ways to move on and rise again. But sometimes a trajedy is simply too great, too all-encompassing, and too heartbreaking to ever explain, and often move on from. We know who...

  • Some Thoughts on Metal in 2011 (so far)

    Over the last week or so, I've made it my mission to digest as much metal as I can. My first challenge was finding out what was out there, exactly. Apparently, I have a fairly "ordinary" taste in metal; I like bands that are well-known,...
